== Background ==
The cycling tour is the successor to the Tour of the Moon, one of the premier stages of Coors Classic cycling race from 1980 to 1988.〔 The Coors Classic cycling race was one of the most famous cycling race in the world. After the Coors Classic ended in 1988, the route only became available to cycling amateurs and enthusiasts. The location was also known for the ''American Flyers'' film.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Icon Lasic Tour of the Moon )〕
USA Pro Cycling Challenge initially applied for the professional race in the said location to the National Park Service but was turned down due to safety concerns.〔 The National Park Service has revised its management policies since the Coors Classic race. Its new policies prohibits commercial sporting events due its detrimental issues to the park's natural resources and operations. On the other hand, the organizing committee's application to hold the Tour of the Moon was approved as the said event is not a professional race but a cycling tour for a cause.〔
